Windows 11

Despite words to the contrary, Microsoft has released the latest Windows OS, and OMG what a complete shitshow they’ve made of it when it comes to finding out if your current PC/Laptop is capable of the upgrade!

Windows 10, was rolled out in 2015. Microsoft insisted that there would be no further versions and that W10 would evolve over the next 10 to 15 years.

Us tech-heads knew that was bullshit because MS can’t help themselves with releasing new versions every 5 or 6 years (good versions that is!) And surprise surprise, 6 years after W10, here comes W11.

However, the PR department at MS really have dropped the ball in terms of letting existing users know if their machines are compatible using their PC Health Check app, and their W11 System Requirements Documentation, both of which came into direct conflict with each other.

Without boring you any further with details, your machine probably won’t be good enough for the free W11 upgrade if you have an old CPU and/or lack TPM2.0 because MS want you to dump your old machine and buy a brand new one with W11 already installed.

Cynics think MS are in cahoots with the big PC manufacturers into wanting you to spend hundreds or even thousands of pounds on new tin just to be able to run W11. Moreover, it also means that a lot of perfectly good PCs will be dumped either into landfill sites or fly-tipped – not very good for the environment (think of poor old Greta!)

MS fucked up the release of Windows 8, and followed up with a half baked 8.1
It then released W10, but every time they rolled out new updates it fixed some problems and created many others, to the point where W10 is wholly unreliable. Which may explain why the guys at Redmond want to brush 10 under the carpet and replace it with W11.

But if they can’t even get their upgrade apps to work correctly, what hope is there of W11 being any more stable than its predecessors?

My advice! Don’t bother with W11 for at least another year. There’s no need to upgrade because quite frankly having installed W11 on my VMware it just ain’t worth the bother.

Linux is the way forward, but if you’re totally dependent in Windows, then stick with 10 for the foreseeable future until the fuck-monkeys at MS get their shit together.

and this from our old friend Dioclese

A good few years back I was offered a contract with Microsoft at the ‘campus’ near Reading. Three months, good money, close to home. What could go wrong? Well, they hadn’t a fucking clue and after a week I deliberately caused a ruckus and got my self kicked out.

I remember a banner across the huge developers office. It read “Remember – the future of the world is in your hands today” One night – and no it wasn’t me – someone took a big fat red pen and wrote across the bottom “We’re fucked then!”

Watching the ensuing witch hunt was truly delicious…

Guto Harri (GB News)

Tedious former BBC cunt took the knee on live tv and may well have signalled the beginning of the end, of what seemed like a promising alternative channel.

Looks like I’ll just watch Sky Australia and TFI Global from now on.

One month in and it’s gone woke

Best given a miss like the rest of the poxy MSM – total disappointment

And then there’s this courtesy of Cuntstable Cuntbubble.

It didnt take long did it? These metropolitan cunts cant help it. Some cunt took the knee on air. Fuck me we know that the St Marcus graffiti wasnt racist, just pointing out what a useless cunt he is.

Which, naturally hasnt been given any BBC coverage. But it must be emphasised that we are a nation of racist cunts. So some nonentity takes the fucking knee.

Seems to have gone down like Huge Grant’s pick up as GB News now records no measurable viewers.

I thought GB News was supposed to be a counter to the biased shite we get from the BBC. Apparently not. Fuck me drunk.

The Guardian (14)

I’d like to nominate The Guardian.

Their “woke central” editorial is bad enough but now they are starting to have a go at pensioners:

Pension Lock Demise

Here’s the thing about the “pension lock” though: it was brought in to partially address the UK’s state pension being one of the worst, meanest, state pensions there is. It’s designed to lift the state pension to prevent it lagging behind inflation due to a variety of factors including, believe it or not, abnormal increases in average wages.

Moreover, even were state pension to rise by the mooted 8% next year that would put somewhere around £42 paltry pounds extra in a pensioner’s pocket each month. Maybe enough to cover the cost of the council tax and TV licence increases next year. That’s right, £42 a month, not the £2,500 pounds a month some millennials have been scamming out of the furlough scheme. And this is only if the 8% is forthcoming. If not, then pensioners’ income will continue to slide.

No doubt some middle class pensioners, of the type who probably read this toilet paper rag, have gold plated final salary pension schemes based on an inflated last year salary bumped up by their mates in the Civil Service having spent a working lifetime administering the fucking over of the plebs. These cunts could afford to lose the “pension lock”. But for every one of these wastes of skin there are probably a thousand plebs out there struggling to get by on a state pension which pays 50% of the UK’s statutory minimum wage.

I have a solution. Don’t scrap the “pension lock” – euthanise The Guardian staff and its readers instead that will save much more money. Pure, unadulterated,

Swiss Democracy Vs UK Democracy

Democracy in the UK.

Power to the people it most certainly is not. Wurzel Gummidge and Aunt Sally decide what is going to happen. Vote Brexit and get Net Fucking Zero instead.

It has to be said that UK democracy is anything but. It doesn’t have to be like this. Switzerland have a wonderful system of referendums letting the voters decide policy. I’ll repeat that to let it sink in – voters deciding policy. Can you imagine that? Your vote actually meaning something.

In a recent referendum, which included the following subjects, common sense prevailed as voters rejected climate change bollox, voted for a ban on burqas, and rejected the idea of a national electronic ID amongst other things.

Can we have democracy like this in the UK please Mr Gummidge – Aunt Sally won’t mind, honestly….

Wine Connoisseurs

There are not many people more cuntish than wine connoisseurs.

Wine is a drink for the masses. In many countries it is cheaper than water and certainly safer to drink. Even young children get in on the act, half a glass of wine topped up with lemonade.

So why in some countries is the wine thing so fucking poncey?

A stuck up waiter will pour a tiny amount for you to taste.
Just leave the bottle you cunt, it’s house red not a fucking Chateau Briand 85.

On to the tasting ritual……

First you have to hold your glass up to the light and check that there are no flies, toenails or corn plasters.
Then you have to stick your nose into the glass to get the aroma.
If it doesn’t smell like vinegar then you go on to taste it.A large sip which you have to swill around your mouth before swallowing.

Now you have to say the first and most pretentious thing you can think of.

“I’m getting a hint of saddle soap and freshly mown grass”

It’s all bollocks. If you watch a proper wine tasting session you will see that nobody actually drinks the stuff. They spit it out.

The reason is that they don’t want to fuck up their taste buds for the next wine.

So why do people buy an entire bottle of expensive wine in a restaurant? They are only going to appreciate the first sip.

Buy just a glass of the good stuff and follow that with a bottle or two of the cheap shit.

I have never worked out what to do with the cork when I am given it in the super poncey restaurants that I have been to.

More research is needed.
